The room was clean along with the entire property. The airport shuttle ride was smooth. Just be patient because you will have to wait. This hotel is like older like decor so if you like them 5 star hotels you may not like this. Some portion of the hotel is outside which I thought was cool how the hotel was designed. Overall I loved the place and the staff is soo nice. Yes they speak Spanish but they also speak English. Room service was also awesome.

They advertise in Expedia that they have a sauna and they do Not have it. (We needed it for our athletes) We paid more expensive than most hotels just to find that out. It's too far from downtown San Jose, coffee maker doesn't work, heater doesn't work, front desk staff is kind of rude. $3.70 for a bottle of water, we pay $1 in California!! All in all, too expensive for what you get.

I didn’t like the amenities, it felt like an old room with a weird smell as well even though it was clean. The shower is something I didn’t like as well, it wasn’t pleasant to use and it was either too hot or too cold. Also, I didn’t like the fact that we found a dead cockroach in the hall. Despite that, Staff was great and the hotel had a cute and quite vibe, something I really appreciated.

The staff was amazing, the hotel was beautiful and even the guests were more than accomodating. After a very challenging vacation and an unexpected injury, my stay was such a relief and allowed me to decompress. Wished I would have booked here for my visit to Costa Rica!
